Recently undergoing comprehensive renovation, this impressive property features a beautifully updated main house with a detached bar and gym, along with a similarly well-appointed, substantial three-bedroom annexe known as "The Bungalow." A standout feature of the property is the expansive formal gardens, which lead to a serene lake, meadows, orchard, and woodland beyond. The property's generous size and prime location near Ponteland make it a unique offering—it is rare to find a plot of this magnitude in such a highly sought-after area.

The kitchen is spacious and beautifully appointed, featuring a variety of high-end appliances, ample cabinetry, a kitchen island, granite worktops, and a breakfast bar that connects to a wonderfully bright and expansive garden room. This garden room, running the length of the main house, is ideal for large functions and entertaining guests, but also a great space for family living. It is flooded with natural light through windows that wrap around the room, offering excellent views of the formal gardens. Adjoining the kitchen is a fully fitted utility room with a washer and dryer. An added luxury is the fully equipped cinema room, featuring a state-of-the-art projector, modern sound system, and comfortable cinema-style seating.

Ascending the grand central staircase, five well-appointed bedrooms are spread across the remaining two floors. The principal bedroom is a luxurious retreat, featuring plush carpeting and tasteful neutral décor. Consistent with the home’s uncompromising luxurious standards, all five bedrooms benefit from their own modern ensuite facilities with high-end finishes, with three of the five enjoying their own private dressing rooms as well.

It also includes an en-suite shower room for added convenience. The first-floor houses two additional spacious bedrooms, ideal for guests or family members.

Externally
Woodside is as impressive outside as it is within, featuring an attractive array of external amenities and various areas to relax. Expansive patios and decking with sunken seating provide ample space to entertain guests.
